Cursor invisible when byebug used inside minitest Progress reporter

[JoeCohen]

When I set a breakpoint in a rails app using byebug and run tests using minitest-reporters' Progress reporter,
then there is no cursor in byebug when the test hits a breakpoint.
In the Default reporter, the cursor behave properly.
(Rails 4.0.13, ruby 2.1.5p273 (2014-11-13 revision 48405) [x86_64-linux], minitest 4.7.5, minitest-reporters 0.14.24).

I originally reported this as an issue for minitest-reporters. The developer suggests: "byebug should be ready for situations when cursor is hidden by the program user debug and restore it." See here. Makes sense to me as minitest does not know what the user might doing inside it.

(Sorry for merely creating an issue -- as opposed to trying to fix it -- but I have no idea how to fix the Progress reporter so this doesn't happen.)

Maybe related to #59 and #63? Thanks for the report.

@JoeCohen Can you reproduce this issue against latest master? If yes, could you provide me with a way of seeing it happening myself?

Funny, I was hoping some unreleased commits would've fixed it... but since it's not happening anymore anyways I'll close. Please reopen if it reappears.

Salud!
